ELECTRONIC QUESTIONNAIRE

The LACSI Initiative recommends, whenever possible, the collection of information using an interview using the CAPI technique (face-to-face interview with the support of an electronic device). This technique has several advantages, including reducing the cost of printed material and personnel (typists and data entry clerks), reducing errors during the survey, applying validation guidelines in real-time, using longer and more complex questionnaires, avoiding the loss of information by being able to back it up frequently and ensuring the confidentiality of the information with encryption techniques (see section 4 of the LACSI Initiative Conceptual Framework).

Based on this recommendation, the UNODC-INEGI Center of Excellence makes available the LACSI Questionnaire (version 2021) in electronic format using the World Bank's "Survey Solutions" platform. To access the electronic questionnaire, first, make sure to create an account on this platform; you can use the following link: https://designer.mysurvey.solutions/identity/account/register
